hi, Thanks for covering EXT_CLK. Few notes: 1) Please beware that CPU gets a lot hotter. You should place the fan another way in case of long glitch to XeLL. 2) XeLL always boot slower, don't worry if boot to XeLL is slow. 3) Music is too loud, distracting. Otherwise good!
Thanks for the feedback. The audio plays differently in Shotcut. I adjusted the gain but it must need to go down more. In Shotcut it plays at an OK level.
Is there anything special you should do with the cool runner. I see that you need to desolder something on the matrix though would this be needed for the cool runner? Is it important to solder the cap for example?
Excelente , le escribo desde Bogota, me sirvio mucho, para una que resibi y no me fije bien crei que era falcon y ya me habia comprometido con el cliente a hacerle el rgh , y salio todo 👍 👍
I got it all done and it near instant boots into Xell. After that, it just doesn't boot up at all. Edit: I was usually told that Jrunner would handle bad blocks but I suppose not. Thankfully I got my CPU key and KV and just ended up making a donor NAND and flashed it in Xell. The Xbox began to boot up just fine after that.

Bro, I bought so many RGHs from you on Kik back then. Please come out with new installation guides. It would attract a lot of people. I've attempted this and failed as well. Please help. I have one more console left, a Zephyr. 🎮 🛠️
I'm trying to do this on a Xenon but it ain't booting to Xell. I made sure to roure the wires as best as possible avoiding noisy areas.

Has anyone else had this issue? Naturally, I'm going to recheck everything again but suggestions would be great.
And what about Jprogrammer v2? Which cables should I solder/connect, and which should I Solder and also where, to connect it properly to Matrix V3 and motherboard? Tutotial is nice, but not complete.
@@OPUS_TV Hi Opus. If you could give me a complete information about this, I'll be in your debt. Actually I have old one X360 Zephyr, I want to renew it for my kid, and I don't know what Should I do with this unit and with "EXT_CLK" method. I did RGH3 "fix" for two units of Coronas, works very well, but this is a little too complicated for me, right now. If you can let me know here, in comment, or in PM by RUclips or Gmail, I would be very grateful. Have a nice day Opus. Best Regards JacobJakub
I recently took my xbox 360 (zephyr) to a store to make the RGH modification. They returned the console practically useless because they made RGH3 and it never started. They never told me what happened, it was not until I disassembled the console that I could see what they did. Researching on the internet I understood that they did the process wrong because that motherboard does not support the RGH3. I want to know what options I have to recover the console. The last time I tried to turn it on I got the 3 red lights. I really need your help.
@@OPUS_TV Excellent, thanks for the answer, I will remove the wiring. Another question, in case they have damaged the nand, is there any possibility to make it work again by making some modifications or following another procedure?

@@OPUS_TV Hi there, "quick update"; They didn't write back the retail nand. I removed the RGH3 wiring, but nothing happened. I bought a Matrix v3 glitch chip and a Pi Pico to read the nand. If I follow your tutorial, is possible that the Xbox works again? Using a donor nand?
@@terryc9059 If the console gets successfully recognised in JRunner than you can write Xell straight to it, wire up the glitch chip and hope it boots. You will need to use a fork of the Pico Flasher firmware called dirty Pico. That will allow you to flash the Matrix. When you say "nothing happens" is that no power or it powers on but doesn't boot? If its no power, connect the Pico and see if you can write Xell. Then try powering it on. If it still doesn't power, then something else is wrong and it's not worth the time trying to diagnose and repair it.
Hi, I have a dead Xbox 360 White Fat model, looks exactly like yours with an HDMI port on the back. Could hacking it like this make it work?

Yes it works for Xenon but there are a couple of differences. You need to remove the capacitor where the RST point is and the CLK point is different because it uses ANA and not HANA. There are pictures in the official download. You can build any XeBuild providing you have the files to do so

Hello, please tell me if there is a chance to see the Winchester hack? Or is there work in this direction?
@@popww5391Winchester is unmoddable
@@popww5391 The most you'll probably ever be able to do on a Winchester are case mods, LED mods, etc. No changes to the software/no unsigned code.

Nope. Coolrunner can stay as it is. No need for a cap either

this method doesnt work on this Service Date 2011 Zephyr. tried 2 different chips rev c & matrix v3. dont know why i even attempted this.

Mine Zephyr was fixed too. A couple of years before yours. It only made it two years.
What cable did you use to program the Matrix v3 chip? I can't find any kits that come with the programming cable.
It's one that comes with the xFlasher and JRPv2
@user-gu8pi7dn3h Pin Header is all you need
Does a Microsoft refurbished Zephyr get the same treatment, or would there be slight variations?
Nearly all Zephyrs are going to be the same. Have a look on XenonLibrary to view if there are any difference

It's trial and error really. Try the ones in the Xenon or Zephyr boxes in JRunner first. Chances are one of those will work the best
